the cosby show never has? N@N has lost the rights to the jeffersons and three's company but you never hear of them losing the rights to the cosby show. I found out three's company has been permanently removed from the N@N schedule. My question is WHEN THE HELL DOES THE COSBY SHOW CONTRACT EXPIRE? 2022? I hate this, I REALLY HATE THIS.

The contract for Three's Company don't expire for a few more years. N@N just isn't airing Three's Company. I keep thinking it will turn up on TV Land in the coming months since N@N isn't airing it anymore. I bet they have The Cosby Show for many years to come, and even it the contract runs out, they'll more than likely renew it.

Your facts are really bad. No one ever said permanent. Nick@Nite has Three's Company until October 2007!

They'll probably move it over to TVLand.

The person on the Three's company board said that they recieved an email from TV LAND saying that TC will be removed from the N@N schedule for good. I asked for your input but i have not gone to the TC board to see if you replied.

As for The Cosby Show, it only started in March 2002. It's probably a four or five year deal, but I'm not certain.

The reason it seems like it's longer is because it's only on 1 gazillion times a day on too many channels.
